About: Life time enjoyment of caring for pets. I’ve grown up with every type of animal from living on a farm. My love for pets has no limits. I grew up in Guernsey the wonderful smaller isle of the Channel Islands, and have moved to Portsmouth almost 2 years ago, I had been looking after my work Colleagues dogs and then he mentioned this fantastic app Rover so thought I’d join in the fun and have dogs around me more often and I love it!! I would love to help with your pets care, from a hamster to a dog I am happy to help where I can. let me help you enjoy your holiday or event you may have planned by taking out the worry of what can you do with your pet. We are both DBS credited so you will have peace of mind your home will be in safe hands. We can watch your dog and why not bring your hamster for a holiday to! We have pet cameras linked to the phones so know your pets every move whilst out of the home, they are motion and noise activated so rest assured we are always watching. We also work on the town whilst hubby is driving around doing maintenance he will go home for toilet brakes and puppy cuddles 🥰 I also work 5 minutes from the house and have the ability to leave my work place at anytime. I work mixed hours so your pets are never left for more than 4 hours. Myself and partner both work however but our shifts are different making it easy to care for your pet. Early afternoon finishes for hubby. Late morning starts for me and we also have the weekends off. The longest they would be left is for approximately 4 hours till someone is back home. Hubby works out and about in his van so can always pop in for puppy pats and treats. we would be happy to take two dogs from the same home to board at our home. we can offer pop ins if near by early in the morning or lunch time, also walks in the afternoon and evening. High walled back yard with plenty of space to run and play. No children to pull and poke your beloved pet. Two adults who adore animals but can’t have our own. We would welcome any opportunity to look after your pet. Doggy therapy is the best.

About: I’ve been dog walking and boarding for over two years, and I’m usually the first call when friends need someone to care for their pets while they’re away. I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats, and all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always been part of my life. I’m a massive dog lover (my daughter is too!), and your pup will be treated like one of the family. I’m currently working part time and my job allows me to be home almost all the time. I tend to have max. of 2 dogs at time so they get as much attention and care as possible I am based in Livermead, only 5mins from the beach where dogs are welcome even during the summer and 5mins drive to Cockington park. Walk along seafront is always good too! Garden is fenced, and location is perfect for walkies.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family ever since I was young and will soon have my own puppy to look after. I’m also very trusted by all my neighbours to look after over night of, take for a walk, or have for the day their dogs. I work from home and i have three children, two of which go to school so i am very flexible in the week and flexible at the weekends to come and care for your pets. I own my house with my own private garden, my house isn’t the biggest but it is dog proof due to having my own and I am very respectful in other peoples home, my neighbours trust me to go over and care for their animals in their own homes.

About: From a young age, animals have been my passion and constant companions. Growing up, I've had the joy of owning various pets, and currently, my home is filled with the delightful energy of my two well-behaved dogs and six adorable hamsters. What sets me apart is not just my experience in pet ownership, but the genuine love and dedication I pour into caring for each animal. Their well-being is my top priority, and I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve. As a part-time stylist, my schedule offers the perfect flexibility to dedicate ample time to pet care. Beyond my work in the hair industry, my days are centered around caring for my own beloved animals. With a deep passion for animals, I'm eager to extend my care to others and assist those who need help with their precious pets. I'm committed to using my free time to provide attentive, loving care, ensuring every pet receives the attention and support they deserve. When caring for pets in an owner's home, my priority is to maintain their established routine and provide a safe, comfortable environment. I follow the owner's instructions meticulously, ensuring proper feeding, exercise, and any necessary medication is administered on time. I'm attentive to the pet's behavior and needs, offering plenty of affection and playtime while also respecting their personal space. Regular communication with the owner is key, providing updates and photos to ensure peace of mind and maintain a strong sense of trust. My goal is to make the pet feel secure and loved in their own home while their owner is away.

Savannah and Jamal were so good with Luna, she looked so happy in the pictures that were sent over! Luna can be reactive so finding someone to trust with her can be difficult but both Savannah and Jamal asked loads of relevant questions and followed all instructions giving me peace of mind of Luna’s safety when they were out walking! Definitely recommend them and already looking at re-booking with them! Thank you guys ☺️x

About: I’ve taken care of family & friends pets for as long as I can remember, I have a lot of experience in that! They trust me to look after their fur babies! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to fit your pet in! I’m available mostly In the week, but can make exceptions for weekends depending on the week 🥰 As my current living situation involves a rented home, I am unable to accommodate pets in this space.

About: I’ve had dogs by my side for as long as I can remember from a very early age, from bouncy pups to gentle seniors and everything in between - including my current dog, a Romanian rescue, Jonas, who is now my best friend! Over the years, I’ve experienced all kinds of personalities — including those a little shy, anxious, or reactive — and I truly believe every dog deserves patience, understanding, and a walk they can enjoy. I know our dogs become family - so when you trust me with your pup, whether for a quick walk or a longer holiday, you can rest easy knowing they’ll be treated like one of my own. My walks are safe, relaxed, and full of love (and maybe a few extra treats!). Whether your dog needs a fun adventure or a calm companion, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, cared for, and wagging their tail every time they see me coming. I have recently left my full time office job to try and take on dog walking as my full time career - this means I am fully flexible to work around you and your pups needs. Whether it’s a quick walk during the work day, or a weekend boarding, I can adapt my schedule around you. I have a large garden, which is unfenced however would always be supervised, whilst also living a 5 minute walk from a dog friendly beach, so a lot of beach walks and sea swims are available! I have my own dog, Jonas, to keep your furry friends company at home or on walks, who is also crate trained. I have basic knowledge of dog first aid, and I am currently in the process of getting my K9 first aid certificate to make sure your pup is in safe hands whatever happens.

About: I've done my Level 1 & 2 Animal Care at Bicton College. It was an amazing experience and I've had hand on experience with a variety of animals from dogs to llamas and even a skunk. The pets I've grown up with have always been very well cared for. I have previous experience on this various platfroms, but unfortunately after a fractured bone in my foot I had to take a break from it and remove my profiles. Now it is fully healed and I've been medically cleared to return, I want to get back into my pet sitting as it was a major passion of mine before the injury. All of the pictures you see on here is of previous animals that I've sat for. I'm fully flexible and can take all the time I need to look after the animals. I have no other obligations to fill at this point in time so can be with the pets at all times. While I can't drive, I know the bus routes extremely well and always make sure I'm punctual and if needed, have a close family member who is happy to drive me. I cannot offer pet sitting services in my home, but I'm more than willing to sit in the owners home. I will be able to do drop ins and walks too.

About: I have had animals for my entire life and love all species and breeds. I’m particularly experienced with big dogs which makes handling all sizes much easier. I’ve developed the ability to recognise their behaviours and needs and act accordingly with confidence and patience. I work part time and am aspiring to start a career in animal welfare, so i’m willing to be as flexible and helpful as possible. I’m happy to follow any instructions and promise to act politely and respectfully when in or around anyone’s home, keeping the animals safe and happy.

About: I am the proud owner of a 2½-year-old male Rottweiler who is full of energy and has received extensive training. Caring for him has given me strong, hands-on experience with large. I have grown up with Bulldogs throughout my life and have also cared for a rescued XL Bully would lives with me for just over one Year . In addition, my brother owns two Pocket Bullies, which I regularly walk and look after, further expanding my experience with the bully breeds. Alongside this, I have cared for an adorable Dachshund and a large Boxer dog, allowing me to confidently handle both small and large breeds. I also live with two adorable, fluffy cats, so I am equally comfortable providing loving and attentive care for your companions. I have been a passionate animal lover for as long as I can remember, with dogs and cats holding a very special place in my heart. I am a fun, energetic, and active person who loves spending time outdoors—whether that’s a relaxing walk along the beach or an adventurous, muddy woodland walk. I offer a reliable, caring, and safe environment for your furry companions, treating them as if they were my own. I pride myself on being trustworthy, attentive, and full of positive energy, ensuring your pets feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for at all times I currently live at home with my parents and am very fortunate that they own a spacious, well-sized house with a large, fully fenced garden, providing a safe and secure outdoor area for pets. There is also a swimming pool located on the opposite side of the property, which is only accessible through the back and can be kept completely separate from the garden area used by animals. In addition, our home is ideally located close to the beach, woodland areas, and large open fields, offering plenty of opportunities for varied, stimulating walks and outdoor exercise

About: Hello! I grew up with many many pets including dogs, cats, Shetland ponies, ducks, chickens, the lot! I’ve always loved caring for animals and have lots of experience with different breeds of dogs- big and small. We had a large Irish wolfhound growing up and now living with a very excitable cockapoo . I work freelance, usually at most 2 days a week around the weekend, and the rest of the time I’m a stay at home mum so lots of time to dote on dogs! Me and my son (animal lover also of course) live with the grandparents and their cockapoo. However we live in a separate part of the house and have access to a separate fenced garden if for any reason the dogs need to be kept apart. The garden is large, lots of room to run around, beautiful walks nearby.

About: From looking after multiple dogs, house sitting and using rover to find my doggo Lennie a place to stay when I go away - Rover is brilliant! I have always had dogs, and trained Lennie along with some of his doggo friends. I would love to be able to care for more doggos! I have had multiple dogs stay before and had a great time. I currently have flexibility, whether that’s needing a house dog sitter or walks Monday - Sunday. Lennie can join for walks or I can walk your dog separately. Lennie also doesn’t have to come for overnight stays if preferred no other dog to be there. I am good at noticing dogs behaviours, and having Lennie the place is set up for dogs! All food far away from access, tons of water bowls and fenced garden. Lennie is very good with other dogs in the house, and if I noticed a doggo feeling anxious or unwell I would straight away notify and make sure they are as comfortable as they can be.

About: I have had dogs snd cats since I was little. I have looked after and walked people’s dogs since I was 18 and I love bonding with different breeds and ages of dogs. I currently live with my partner and his family and we have 6 of our own dogs…we’re a bit dog mad! They also do dog sitting and walking, so I have a lot of experience! I have helped train puppies I’ve looked after in the past and also helped care for dogs on the older side. I adore all animals and would be happy to look after yours if needed! I am free most days, Monday to Friday but also happy to pet sit over weekends. I provide dog walking from 10am - 4pm on weekdays I live in an old farm house with a huge fenced off garden. Dogs are allowed free range of the house most the day but will be shut in separate rooms at feeding time. They have constant access to the garden and will be able to toddle off in the house and find somewhere comfy to chill out!

Amy provided great walks for my dog, Betty, while I was away. Although my elderly dad was able to look after Betty's day-to-day care, he can't give her the walks she needs and loves. Amy was reliable and punctual, and has a genuine love for animals. I was able to enjoy my holiday knowing Betty was having fun! Will definitely be booking Amy in the future.

Kirsty is the person I trust the most with my dog. She has got to be the best pet sitter in the area. I messaged Kirsty at 2110, as I had been called into work and needed her to walk my dog. Kirsty was over to my house within 15 minutes, and walked my dog for an hour. Thank you so much! An absolute superstar!
